Hey all

I have a feeling I¹m going to be embarrassed once this question gets
answered, but here goes:

1) I have a global floater with an editfield.

2) I¹m dragging text selections to this editfield using the built-in drag
and drop capability ? no code.

3) I want to fire a ShowURL event as soon as the text is dropped into the
editfield, but I don¹t want to use the TextChange event.

What¹s the bet way to have the editfield realize something¹s been dropped so
I can fire the ShowURL? I have code in the DropObject, but it¹s not doing
anything as it¹s referring to a folderitem ? but the text is just a
selection being dragged from a browser window.

Any help would be appreciated,
Maury
